Add coconut oil to a hot drink!! If you can handle a couple tablespoons it does the job! I had to drink it for about 6 months!!

I am two months out and down 42 pounds! You will be happy with your choice. Ronda will help you with any questions you have and will follow up by E mail. You will need to find a doctor to help you with your aftercare follow up. Blood work...... I use obesity help.com for info? Nothing serious just protein ideas and things that might come up.. Constipation:( it's a great site for things others do or have been through. You need to know you are in good hands and YES things will be different.... Example: there are no computers in the hospital? Nurses use clip boards and notebooks. They speak little English ? It's very clean and you are safe! And taken care of! There are bumps in the road ...pick up times , waiting, nothing life threating? Boarder crossing is ALWAYS different... You can not time it! So time schedules get screwed up. Know that Dr. Ortiz is wonderful and personable !

It was not bad! You can do it.... After surgery each day gets easier!

I am doing well? How about you? Are you sick of shakes yet? I am having a hard time getting protein in! Everyday gets better! What are you eating?

I had my sleeve with Dr Ortiz June 28th great experience! It's not a walk in the park? You are having surgery! I couldn't be happier!

I feel your pain! I am sick of the same things. Google it for more ideas? Refrained beans topped with cheese!

I am in the Marriott! It's very nice! Long day... They will pick me and 4 others up in the morning at 8:30. I hope I am ready!!See you soon! Debbie

The price includes everything but your flight. Two days in the hospital three in the hotel. DO IT!!

I am being sleeved June 28th ! So I guess I will soak in all you advice! Hope things are going well for all!

I have a June 28th date! But I did read I can have V8 ... I hope you are doing better!! Best of luck!

I sent you a message a few days ago...LOL You have to know where to look for it? I found the spot be accident! Go to MY SURGERY look at the top right for an envelope . If I sent it ... Ha .... ( who knows) it will have a message ? Any way I am a day ahead of you. I fly out of Florida the 27th to San Diego where they pick me up at the Airport that evening. My procedure will be the next morning , the 28th. I am struggling with this pre opp diet!! Lost 10 lbs already but I stay hungry and it's hard because I have NO will power! I am doing it! I just keep thinking this is going to help me heal faster!! I wish Saturday would just get here! I hope I can stick to the broth!! Can't wait to see how you are doing?

I will see you there!!

When is your surgery? I am scheduled for June 28th! Getting really real!! Started my Pre opp diet! Grrrrrrrr! I hope we can follow each other?

I am scheduled for June 28 th... I start my pre op diet on Sunday!! Wondering if we can drink coffee? Tell me about your diet?

I can relate! I start my two week pre diet Monday...thinking of everything I can never eat again! Making me realize maybe I do have food issues? I am scheduled for the 28th. I am really worried about the liquid diet? Honestly getting nervous!!

My scheduled date is June 28th!! Mexico, Dr.Ortiz! I can't wait... Reality is here? I am 5'4" 245! Don't know why it seems ok to bare it all on this site!!

What is your date?? I am the 28th.

I was told he does ten a day and has been doing them for three years:) mine is scheduled for June 28th !I'm not sure who would have told you that he does ten per day. I am friends with Janese, his sales coordinator, and she told me he limits himself to 4-5 per day. I wouldn't get hung up on how many he has done. Trust me, he has done lots and is very qualified. He used to work for Dr Lopez and performed many of Dr Lopez's surgeries and Dr Ortiz did not receive credit for them, Dr Lopez counted them as if he had done them. Bottom line, Dr Ortiz will do a great job for you and will not rip you off. He actually cares about his patients and doing quality work.I am sure you are right!! Can't wait!!!

I am scheduled for the 28th of June !!
